2 Give God the Glory A curious feature of the first half of Mark s Gospel is the pattern of Jesus working a miracle, then telling the recipient of the miracle to keep still about it. Many theories have been offered: Mark is setting the stage for the great secret revealed when Peter will proclaim Jesus the Messiah at Caesarea Philippi; more skeptical commentators offer that Jesus, fully aware of human nature, knew that the way to spread the news was to tell people to keep it secret. The insight into this secretkeeping that serves us well, however, is that Jesus was initiating his public ministry according to the pattern that Paul describes. He was doing it for the glory of God not for his own benefit, but for that of all. Paul would later write in Philippians that Jesus humbled himself to become like us. And we see this humility at work in today s healing of the leper. Jesus is trying to reveal the presence of God s reign among the people, not so that he himself might receive the glory, but so that God would be glorified through him. Imitating this pattern, which Paul encourages the Jewish and Greek Christian factions in Corinth to do, still serves us well today. Copyright J. S. Paluch Co., Inc.

(3 year old Preschool thru 8 th Grade) Besides our children being 3rd generation students at All Saints (formerly St Mary), we chose ASCS for several reasons. First, the smaller class sizes. Second, we are confident that the teachers have a more controlled environment, and easier time focusing on the needs of each and every child. We also wanted a more parent involved community. Seeing new faces at each function, event or classroom, and getting to know who our children are spending time with, and their families. Lastly, incorporating our Catholic values on an everyday basis, and raising them in a rigorous yet supportive atmosphere. We are now accepting enrollments for All Saints Catholic School for our school year. To enroll, schedule a tour or to learn more, please call us ( ) or visit our website: allsaintskenosha.org.
